However, Waylen still walked over and opened the lid of the piano. Without hesitation, he sat down and started playing Moonlight Sonata.
It was still snowing outside.
He played the piece twice.
Finally, he looked at his hands and whispered, “Did I really love her that much?”
Rena and Waylen were not on speaking terms.
She didn’t answer his calls or agreed to see him. The only times Waylen did see her was at the Fowlers’ house or in the newspapers.
But that wasn’t his wife in the paper.
That was just another successful businesswoman.
Waylen was busy too. He had returned to the legal circle and had a lot of important cases to deal with.

Sometimes, when he wasn’t occupied, he would think of Rena.

Christmas was soon around the corner.
Rena had been managing Exceed Group so well that she had gained popularity in the upper-class circles of Duefron, and she’d done it without Waylen’s help or influence.
One night, Rena attended a banquet. She was in a daze when she left the party.
